Judy Blume recommended Madeline in Books (curated)

Book Favorite

"The first book I fell in love with at the Elizabeth (NJ) public library. I found it on my own, memorized it (I must have been around four and couldn’t read yet). I loved it so much I hid it so my mother would not be able to return it to the library. I thought it was the only copy in the world. To this day I feel guilty. It was the first book I bought for my daughter’s library when she was born."

It was love from the first sentence. I will now be seeking out more of Backman's writing, the style is just so darn readable. It is snarky, and funny, and heartwarming, and heartbreaking.

Brutal is the first word that comes to mind for this book. It is unapologetic and brutal. There is no sugar coating instead there is blood, pus, and all other sorts of bodily fluids to make you cringe. Add in some girl on girl love and you have a feminist book for the ages.

It's good seeing Keanu Reeves in his first action role where he's beefed up. There is great chemistry between him and Sandra Bullock. (0 more)
It's very cliché (0 more)
Tounge in cheek
I love this movie even though it makes me laugh out loud sometimes. There is action and comedy and downright daft moments. But it's so enjoyable.

i was so surprised i liked this novel. actually, it's three short stories. i almost didn't get it because it looked like it was geared toward love sick 14 year olds. but Taylor has a beautiful writing style and i liked that i could tell she was from the NW in the first few pages.

This coming of age story is set in a small town in Maine. There is some mystery but mostly it is the story of a young girl dealing with tragedy, heartbreak, and growing up. I fell in love with Florine and hope that the rest of her life goes smoother than her first 17 years!

The first three books in the series introduce many of the main characters and give us three great mysteries, too. I still love this series, so I highly recommend you see where it all began.

Abby is running her first Confectionary Competition. It's a struggle even before Savannah returns to town and is murdered. Again, the pacing wasn't quite what it could have been, but I love the characters.
